The meat-on-meat triumph

Pastrami Burger, Crown Burger

(Salt Lake City)

A quarter-pound cheeseburger at this West Coast chain has shredded lettuce, tomato, and chopped raw onion on a sesame seed bun, but also the curious inclusion of pastrami on top. And Motz says he adores it. "It tastes peppery and complex, but it doesn't overwhelm the flavor of the beef," he says. "And they steam the pastrami, so it's hot and juicy – absolutely a unique topping."
